Oh my god this little one is SO TEENY-TINY. It would barely have been a snack for my rats if they'd gotten hold of it.

Out of absolutely nowhere my brain hit me with a #iorveth headcanon last night:

His tattoo is incomplete. It stops partway down his shoulder. The artist who'd been inking it was murdered by humans and he chose to leave it unfinished forever.

These do seem like pretty valid concerns?

No cheating, post the last pic you took of your pet.

My girls snuggling on a friend's lap:

17. Characters going on and on about establishing safewords when they're not engaging in any kind of consent play. "No" and "stop" and "slow down" are perfectly adequate ways to communicate in most kinky situations!

14. Oh man it was probably that first Pokemon fic I wrote as a teenager, I no longer have a copy of it but that thing went on forever 😂

The longest thing I've ever *posted* is the 8.6k of my abandoned Alexander Pierce/Steve Rogers fic... I did have a whole plan for it but I got stuck.

1. When I first signed up for Tumblr, back in 2011, I wanted my account name to have nothing to do with my meatspace identity or any of my other online identities.

While trying to come up with ideas, I grabbed another handful of croutons from the bag I was snacking on...

18. I can't listen to ANYTHING when I'm trying to concentrate on a task, it completely derails my brain. If I need background noise I might put the news on the TV on low volume, but not as something to actually listen to.

6. I'm definitely a planner. Or rather... I only really write things when I have a specific idea that I want to get out, and then I obsess about how exactly I want to express that idea. (I don't do long fics at all 😅)

22. Definitely porn without plot - there was one time I was trying to write a PWP oneshot and I literally scrapped the whole thing and started over four times because plot kept trying to creep in 🤣

As a reader, just give me the bare minimum setup for the smut and I'm happy 😙

12. I love all sorts of feedback, but I especially love comments! I'm always interested to hear what people think about stuff I've written. Please never ever be shy about saying anything you like in the comments of one of my fics!

Deliveroo... no... that is not what I'm looking for...

20. Angst! Trauma!! Darkfic!!! Hurt no comfort!!!! I love putting my blorbos through Situations, and take great pride in the fact that on two separate occasions I've written something so awful that someone else wrote a follow-up fix-it 😊

24. Hands down my favourite comment I've ever received:

'When I first saw the tags I was like "Ugh, I hate tentacle porn", then I was bored so I read it and now I feel like I am going to hell.'

Thank you reader, and welcome to the handbasket 🤣

19. Tight third person. I know, I know, same as every fanfic writer ever, but what drives me to write fanfic is the characters, so I usually want to get as deep into their brains as possible.
March 22, 2025 at 5:22 PM
15. I don't... actually... have any WIPs at the moment 😅 Pretty much everything I've been writing lately has been for @smubbles.bsky.social, and when I write drabbles I tend to churn them out immediately on the spot.
March 22, 2025 at 5:17 PM
16. Nope, I'm not generally a fan of writing (or reading) AUs, unless we're talking about the canon divergent kind. I just checked my AO3 works and there's a grand total of one (1) drabble there that might be considered a genuine alternate universe 😅

without downloading any new pics, where are you at mentally?
